After Peterson’s comments gained traction online, Ariana Grande took to Instagram to clarify her side of the story and to extend an apology. In her heartfelt message, Grande expressed her sadness upon hearing Peterson’s recollections.

She explained, “I actually don’t even remember getting the chance to meet you because I had an anxiety attack and to my memory, left before the rest of my family.” Grande mentioned that this encounter took place around seven years ago, a time when she struggled with public appearances and large crowds. She added, “But if I’m misremembering this moment, I sincerely apologize for offending you so.”
